Powder compact characteristics, on which its sintering kinetics, grain formation, and structural oxide ceramic mechanical properties depend, are considered. Powder compact inhomogeneity criteria are formulated. Reasons are analyzed for forming pore space structure inhomogeneity. Experimental data are provided for the effect of powder compact structure inhomogeneity on compaction kinetics and grain growth within it during sintering.
